Abstract

We examine and intercompare the LF plasma wave turbulence at three comets: Grigg-Skjellerup (GS), Giacobini-Zinner (GZ), and Halley (H). All three have power spectral peaks at the local ion cyclotron frequency (the pump wave) at -10-2 Hz, and a power-law fall-off at higher frequencies that suggest the development of turbulent cascades [Acuna, 1986].
